By angle

Not Lite

By angle routine classifies points according to the scan angle, the angle from vertical, or the angle from the line edge.

The Scan angle can be stored as attributes for laser points in TerraScan FastBinary and LAS files. If points from other file formats are used, or if the attribute is not stored, a scan angle is computed based on the trajectories and their values can range from -128 and +127 degree.

Angles from vertical are computed based on trajectories and can range from 0 to 90 degree.

Angles from edge uses the angle attribute stored for laser points and thus, requires that points are stored in TerraScan FastBinary or LAS files. The option can be used to classify points along scan line edges at a high angular accuracy.
